Kindle Notes & Highlights
The most annoying thing about it is that once a person gives a shit about one thing, he finds he has to start giving a shit about everything.
People tell boring lies about politics, God and love. You know everything you need to know about a person from the answer to the question: What is your favourite book?
‘Sometimes books don’t find us until the right time.’
‘It is the secret fear that we are unlovable that isolates us,’ the passage goes, ‘but it is only because we are isolated that we think we are unlovable. Someday, you do not know when, you will be driving down a road. And someday, you do not know when, he, or indeed she, will be there. You will be loved because for the first time in your life, you will truly not be alone. You will have chosen to not be alone.’
We agree to be disappointed sometimes so that we can be exhilarated every now and again.
